    Oof. What figure took them that long? I'm still waiting for them to get the Ectotron they were supposed to have back in December but I figured the pandemic was responsible for the added delays (like I assume that it got delayed initially by something unrelated and then got caught up in cny and then Corona).

    I've had them take two months after stuff has hit other etailers to get stuff in stock. Most recently, the DST Tron figures. They've only gotten slow like this in the past couple of years (?). It's not everything, but I don't really know why anyone would buy from them (over any other etailer).

    Amateurs. I had a Return Of The Living Dead Tar Man figurine on preorder with them back in '08(?) that finally got filled nearly 2 years later. Jeez. Still bitter about that, lol.

    Thanks for your answers, I think I´ll do a separate scale for the Headmasters line.

    Said so... What Shixshot fits better with MFT Headmasters? I´m kinda lost between VS, MF, MS lines... Also, do they have an official website or something?

    Thanks again :D

    MS-20 Iron Sky should have the following repaints--

    Black train/white shuttle (based on the original Japanese G1 Astrotrain toy and most reissues)
    Purple train/light gray shuttle (based on the original American G1 Astrotrain toy)

    the box should be able to tell us what repaints MFT will be rolling out. MFT always have those little tick (or check) boxes indicating repaints, on every packaging they have.

    Hi again, my question was more related about the diference in size and scale between MFT different lines, kinda lost there... :( 

    Digging around I´ve found this poster and that the official web is Sina Visitor System hope it will help someone.

    So, with the exception of some of their earliest releases which were upscaled KOs of Hasbro Scout or Legends class from years ago and the KO of DX9 Hulkie which is 1:1, MFT has done a great job of keeping a pretty consistent scale with their own releases.

    The Diaclone mechs are all 1:1 KOs with some newly tooled sculpting here and there. Think of an MFT Dianaut as a Transformers scale human. This human is the same size as MFT’s Headmasters head bots and can drive a number of MFT alt mode vehicles.

    Mft sixshot is bigger than mft headmaster

    Interesting, I always thought that the previously released mft rodimus could change into horror. Was I wrong? Is this hotrod a totally new mold?

    So, what is this, like a deluxe version of their flame warrior sans trailer??? I like it, just not sure what it is entirely.

    Otherwise known as my replacement for Buyer's Remorsimus Prime..

    Flame Commander definitely isn't the worst figure, but I'd much rather have a Hot Rod, instead. I do like Commander's mech suit and Targetmaster, though.
